We started work on this early George IIIBureau in the winter and as you can see by looking at trees outside it took us up to the end of March to finish it.
It does say on the film it took over 80 hours of work to finish but I think in truth it took over 100 hours. This is not an unusual experience for us, we will often go above and beyond what is expected of us and I hope this short film gives an insight into what it means to be a antique furniture restorer.
My thanks to our apprentice: Archie Newnham-Dibley for applying his previously learnt skills in film & media to produce this mammothian film.

Is that dusty table at least 100 years old, making it a genuine antique – or is it a cleverly aged fake? Here are some ways to tell the difference.
Step 1: Look at the color
Look at the color of the wood. It changes over time, so a true antique won't be uniform in color unless it's been refinished.
Step 2: Nail the nails
Check out the nails -- those used after 1880 have round shanks and round heads. Before 1800, they were squarish. In between, they had L-shaped heads that made holes in the shape of a rectangle. Beware of old, rusty nails in rust-free holes; it's often the sign of a fake.
Tip
If there are no machine tool marks, the piece was made prior to 1830, when furniture was made by hand.
Step 3: Examine tabletops and sides
Examine a tabletop in the light; with a truly old table, the top will be wavy. If the table has sides, they should be difficult to lower and raise, also due to shrinkage.
Tip
If a table is perfectly round, it's probably not an antique; the wood would have warped into a slightly oval shape.
Step 4: Check out chairs
Check out a chair's feet: Very old ones will be so hard they'll almost feel like stone. If it's upholstered, peek under the corners of the upholstery; an old chair will likely have several sets of nail holes. Rub your hand over the rails on the underside for saw marks; old saws made irregular marks, which can be felt.
Step 5: Inspect drawers
Inspect drawers. Dovetailing -- pieces of wood joined in a pattern resembling a dove's tail -- is the hallmark of an antique. On desks, see if right-side drawers are more worn; most people are right-handed.
Step 6: Watch for faked aging
Be suspicious if the wear and tear is too uniform. Some dealers try to make modern pieces look old by scraping them with sandpaper. Happy hunting!
Did You Know?
A Queen Anne stool from about 1750 sold for more than $5.2 million in 2008, setting a record for any chair sold at auction.

We are specialized in the sale of antique European and American furniture of the 18th and 19th up to early 20th century. Our experience of 30 years allow us to know how to sell well, and at a good price. We only sell pieces that generate a strong attraction, which are elegant but with simple lines, which could look good with a modern-/trendy decor. We are very careful with the furniture and we only buy those that do not need a big restoration and we do it ourselves in our workshop. As we can see in the video, there are a lot of furniture and all of them are in good condition

Antique furniture

An antique furniture is a collectible interior furnishing of considerable age. Often its age, rarity, condition, utility, or other unique features makes a piece of furniture desirable as a collectors' item, and thus termed an "antique".

Antique furniture may support the human body (such as seating or beds), provide storage, or hold objects on horizontal surfaces above the ground. Storage furniture (which often makes use of doors, drawers, and shelves) is used to hold or contain smaller objects such as clothes, tools, books, and household goods. Furniture can be a product of artistic design and is considered a form of decorative art. In addition to furniture's functional role, it can serve a symbolic or religious purpose. Domestic furniture works to create, in conjunction with furnishings such as clocks and lighting, comfortable and convenient interior spaces. Furniture can be made from many materials, including metal, plastic, and wood. Cabinetry and cabinet making are terms for the skill set used in the building of furniture.

Antique

An antique (Latin:antiquus; "old", "ancient") is an old collectable item. It is collected or desirable because of its age, beauty, rarity, condition, utility, personal emotional connection, and/or other unique features. It is an object that represents a previous era or time period in human society.

It is common practice to define "antique" as applying to objects at least 100 years old,

Antiques are usually objects that show some degree of craftsmanship—or a certain attention to design, such as a desk or an early automobile. They are bought at antique shops, estate sales, auction houses, online auctions, and other venues, or estate inherited. Antique dealers often belong to national trade associations, many of which belong to CINOA, a confederation of art and antique associations across 21 countries that represents 5,000 dealers.

Definition

The common definition of antique is a collectible object such as a piece of furniture or work of art that has a high value because of its considerable age, yet it does in fact vary depending on the source, product, and year. Motor vehicles are an exception to the 100-year rule. The customary definition of antique requires that an item be at least 100 years old and in original.

Furniture

Furniture is the mass noun for the movable objects intended to support various human activities such as seating (e.g., chairs, stools and sofas) and sleeping (e.g., beds). Furniture is also used to hold objects at a convenient height for work (as horizontal surfaces above the ground, such as tables and desks), or to store things (e.g., cupboards and shelves). Furniture can be a product of design and is considered a form of decorative art. In addition to furniture's functional role, it can serve a symbolic or religious purpose. It can be made from many materials, including metal, plastic, and wood. Furniture can be made using a variety of woodworking joints which often reflect the local culture.

Archeological research shows that Neolithic people used stone to build cupboards, dressers, beds, shelves and seats. Ancient furniture from the 8th-century BC includes tables and serving stands. The furniture of the Middle Ages was usually heavy, oak, and ornamented. Furniture design expanded during the Italian Renaissance of the fourteenth and fifteenth century. The seventeenth century, in both Southern and Northern Europe, was characterized by opulent, often gilded Baroque designs. The nineteenth century is usually defined by revival styles. The first three-quarters of the twentieth century are often seen as the march towards Modernism. One unique outgrowth of post-modern furniture design is a return to natural shapes and textures.

Antiques Roadshow

Antiques Roadshow is a British television show in which antiquesappraisers travel to various regions of the United Kingdom (and occasionally in other countries) to appraise antiques brought in by local people. It has been running since 1979, based on a 1977 documentary series. The series has spawned international versions with the same TV format, including Canada and the United States. As of 2016 it is presented by Fiona Bruce and is in its 38th series.

History

The series began as a 1977 BBC documentary about a London auction house doing a tour of the West Country in England. The pilot roadshow was recorded in Hereford on 17 May 1977 presented by contributor Bruce Parker, a presenter of news/current affairs program Nationwide and antiques expert Arthur Negus, who had previously worked on a similarly-themed show, Going for a Song. The pilot was so successful that it was transmitted and the format has remained almost unchanged ever since. Negus appeared on Antiques Roadshow until 1983. In the original BBC series, various towns or famous places are advertised as venues. The original theme music was Bach's Brandenburg Concerto No 3 (for several years in a Moog synthesiser version by Walter Carlos), but was changed in the early 1990s to an original piece, by Paul Reade and Tim Gibson, which has been used ever since. The show has since visited a number of other countries (including Canada in 2001 and Australia in 2005) and has been imitated by other TV production companies around the world.

Victorian Furniture Pricing - Antiques with Gary Stover

Conventional wisdom leads us to believe that prices for "brown" Victorian furniture have been declining for years. We'll put that proposition to the test in this week's show by examining about 10 pieces currently for sale at the BrassArmadilloAntiqueMall in Denver. We'll then try to back up in our thinking 10 years or so and compare what comparable pieces would have been then. The Mall has been in existence for more than 18 years, and the highest sales day in its history was Memorial Day, a couple of days ago. Previous high sales days have been in the traditional retail high season around Christmas. Furniture sales make up a high percentage of total sales at the Mall. Maybe conventional wisdom about Victorian furniture pricing trends need to be reexamined.

How to Buy Antique Furniture

Watch more HomeDecor & Lighting videos: http://www.howcast.com/videos/400052-How-to-Buy-Antique-Furniture
Is that dusty table at least 100 years old, making it a genuine antique – or is it a cleverly aged fake? Here are some ways to tell the difference.
Step 1: Look at the color
Look at the color of the wood. It changes over time, so a true antique won't be uniform in color unless it's been refinished.
Step 2: Nail the nails
Check out the nails -- those used after 1880 have round shanks and round heads. Before 1800, they were squarish. In between, they had L-shaped heads that made holes in the shape of a rectangle. Beware of old, rusty nails in rust-free holes; it's often the sign of a fake.
Tip
If there are no machine tool marks, the piece was made prior to 1830, when furniture was...

Victorian Furniture Pricing - Antiques with Gary Stover

Conventional wisdom leads us to believe that prices for "brown" Victorian furniture have been declining for years. We'll put that proposition to the test in this week's show by examining about 10 pieces currently for sale at the BrassArmadilloAntiqueMall in Denver. We'll then try to back up in our thinking 10 years or so and compare what comparable pieces would have been then. The Mall has been in existence for more than 18 years, and the highest sales day in its history was Memorial Day, a couple of days ago. Previous high sales days have been in the traditional retail high season around Christmas. Furniture sales make up a high percentage of total sales at the Mall. Maybe conventional wisdom about Victorian furniture pricing trends need to be reexamined.

We started work on this early George IIIBureau in the winter and as you can see by looking at trees outside it took us up to the end of March to finish it.
It does say on the film it took over 80 hours of work to finish but I think in truth it took over 100 hours. This is not an unusual experience for us, we will often go above and beyond what is expected of us and I hope this short film gives an insight into what it means to be a antique furniture restorer.
My thanks to our apprentice: Archie Newnham-Dibley for applying his previously learnt skills in film & media to produce this mammothian film.
Also my thanks to Will Arscott for all his hard work in restoring this oak bureau, also his guidance with the young bearded Archie!

Discover the hidden features and intricate interior of this cabinet.
One of the finest achievements of European furniture making, this cabinet is the most important product from Abraham (1711--1793) and David Roentgen's (1743--1807) workshop. A writing cabinet crowned with a chiming clock, it features finely designed marquetry panels and elaborate mechanisms that allow for doors and drawers to be opened automatically at the touch of a button. Owned by King FrederickWilliam II, the Berlin cabinet is uniquely remarkable for its ornate decoration, mechanical complexity, and sheer size.

Is that dusty table at least 100 years old, making it a genuine antique – or is it a cleverly aged fake? Here are some ways to tell the difference.
Step 1: Look at the color
Look at the color of the wood. It changes over time, so a true antique won't be uniform in color unless it's been refinished.
Step 2: Nail the nails
Check out the nails -- those used after 1880 have round shanks and round heads. Before 1800, they were squarish. In between, they had L-shaped heads that made holes in the shape of a rectangle. Beware of old, rusty nails in rust-free holes; it's often the sign of a fake.
Tip
If there are no machine tool marks, the piece was made prior to 1830, when furniture was made by hand.
Step 3: Examine tabletops and sides
Examine a tabletop in the light; with a truly old table, the top will be wavy. If the table has sides, they should be difficult to lower and raise, also due to shrinkage.
Tip
If a table is perfectly round, it's probably not an antique; the wood would have warped into a slightly oval shape.
Step 4: Check out chairs
Check out a chair's feet: Very old ones will be so hard they'll almost feel like stone. If it's upholstered, peek under the corners of the upholstery; an old chair will likely have several sets of nail holes. Rub your hand over the rails on the underside for saw marks; old saws made irregular marks, which can be felt.
Step 5: Inspect drawers
Inspect drawers. Dovetailing -- pieces of wood joined in a pattern resembling a dove's tail -- is the hallmark of an antique. On desks, see if right-side drawers are more worn; most people are right-handed.
Step 6: Watch for faked aging
Be suspicious if the wear and tear is too uniform. Some dealers try to make modern pieces look old by scraping them with sandpaper. Happy hunting!
Did You Know?
A Queen Anne stool from about 1750 sold for more than $5.2 million in 2008, setting a record for any chair sold at auction.

We started work on this early George IIIBureau in the winter and as you can see by looking at trees outside it took us up to the end of March to finish it.
It does say on the film it took over 80 hours of work to finish but I think in truth it took over 100 hours. This is not an unusual experience for us, we will often go above and beyond what is expected of us and I hope this short film gives an insight into what it means to be a antique furniture restorer.
My thanks to our apprentice: Archie Newnham-Dibley for applying his previously learnt skills in film & media to produce this mammothian film.
Also my thanks to Will Arscott for all his hard work in restoring this oak bureau, also his guidance with the young bearded Archie!

How to Buy Antique Furniture

Is that dusty table at least 100 years old, making it a genuine antique – or is it a cleverly aged fake? Here are some ways to tell the difference.
Step 1: Look at the color
Look at the color of the wood. It changes over time, so a true antique won't be uniform in color unless it's been refinished.
Step 2: Nail the nails
Check out the nails -- those used after 1880 have round shanks and round heads. Before 1800, they were squarish. In between, they had L-shaped heads that made holes in the shape of a rectangle. Beware of old, rusty nails in rust-free holes; it's often the sign of a fake.
Tip
If there are no machine tool marks, the piece was made prior to 1830, when furniture was made by hand.
Step 3: Examine tabletops and sides
Examine a tabletop in the light; with a truly old table, the top will be wavy. If the table has sides, they should be difficult to lower and raise, also due to shrinkage.
Tip
If a table is perfectly round, it's probably not an antique; the wood would have warped into a slightly oval shape.
Step 4: Check out chairs
Check out a chair's feet: Very old ones will be so hard they'll almost feel like stone. If it's upholstered, peek under the corners of the upholstery; an old chair will likely have several sets of nail holes. Rub your hand over the rails on the underside for saw marks; old saws made irregular marks, which can be felt.
Step 5: Inspect drawers
Inspect drawers. Dovetailing -- pieces of wood joined in a pattern resembling a dove's tail -- is the hallmark of an antique. On desks, see if right-side drawers are more worn; most people are right-handed.
Step 6: Watch for faked aging
Be suspicious if the wear and tear is too uniform. Some dealers try to make modern pieces look old by scraping them with sandpaper. Happy hunting!
